Hawaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

Zionism is racism. The United Nations voted to declare it as such in 1975, half a century ago. This isn’t new, and this isn’t controversial.

So infuriating. Thank you Sen. Schiff for fighting the injustice we see with our own eyes ever day. The ads are clearly unacceptable and a violation of law.

The Trump regime has released an ad, using trigger words like communism and marxism to scare people, because that is what they do. Divide and conquer, distrust your neighbor. Republicans and Trump don't want what's best for you. They want what's best for themselves.

We have leaders and imposters among us who may look halfway normal, but who have committed horrific crimes against humanity, damaged lives, and flouted the law without remorse or penalty, and I won't rest until every last one of them is held accountable. Don't say it can't be done.

Trump stood at the UN podium and called Democrats “dumocrats.” The President of the United States, on the world stage, resorting to playground insults. This isn’t strength. It isn’t leadership. It’s embarrassing, and America deserves better.

That is really sad, and embarrassing as an American. Aren't we stronger together, isn't union a strength, can't a large number of people working together make wonderful things happen that no single individual or small group can possibly do? Wasn't that the norm before a mob mentality took over?

Donald Trump tore up a perfectly good treaty with Iran in 2018. Trump just signed a new treaty with Denmark and Greenland which is just like the old one. Trump is pandering for votes with his theater. Don't buy it. Vote Republicans out in November.

We should all be disgusted of the White House Press Corp. No one walked out No one told Trumpy to go fuck himself. No one said mean things to Trumpy after he chopped down another pillar of American Democracy. No one asked for proof any of them published 'fake news'. No one did anything. Sad.

When are Maga-Evangelical-Republicans going to come up with a heathcare plan that's better than the Affordable Care Act? I think NEVER, because they clearly measure success in terms of elimination and exclusion, or death. Making the human condition better takes a back seat.

So glad to see more attention on this issue, and on the reactionary fallout from 9/11 which was just ugly. Early on the "PATRIOT Act" was even threatening librarians, am I right? demanding they provide info or at least access to the books people checked out. Talk about intrusive.

The risk is that doing so will intimidate voters and discourage people from voting, plus there's risk of escalating an already tense situation. It's the exact opposite of what a legitimate government should do.
